Ermmmm...Only 1 year as Nav or 1 1/2, 14 as driver, 2 of those throttle only, 1 of those drive only. Boats raced Cat, 21, 27, 28, Monos 16,19,22,23,38,43 feet that is. Didn’t count the Honda cos I didn’t drive it anywhere...It was too fast for me so got scared...never crossed the start line, never finished a race, never got a podium, never went over 20mph cos i was scared, infact never even managed to get past the pontoon in fact, never even seen a race boat, what are they?...never never. Thats where you lot live..Never Never land.
You are all obsessed by the Daily Telegraph article, drag it on why dont you, get wound up by me winding you all up... get a hobby. I’m bored now and apart from that I have a life. I really wont be back on till 2009...bit busy till then....oh.any comment on James comments on the boat or is it still under the rug....i'll not be checking so keep that quiet if you want...
I’lk make sure I do another article soon so you have something else to play with. YAWN!
I admire you all sticking together though, even when you wont answer the question which shows you all to be wrong...cheerio till 2009!

BITE ME!
i asked how many podiums not years

Who is this James Shep? Is he important/knowledgable? Why does it matter if he thinks the boat setup was crap?

Podium? Has Sarah actually ever won something? I thought she just lolled about on powerboats in a bikini? Did she actually ever do anything before Honda?

I can help you there Tricky - he won quite a bit in Honda (sponsored by King of Shaves), the went on to race in the States with Nigel Hook, did a season with Chris Parsonage in his Class One boat and finally ended up last year in P1 all with the same sponsor - they must like him a lot!

I would imagine that having won (I think) both of the Honda class championships he would know a thing or two about these boats, and certainly as well qualified as many of the current racers to comment - so what was his opi9nion of the set up of this boat?

He said the boat was crap basically, and that it was nothing like it used to be. (I say that about my boat every race, but then, I know feckall.)

If this bloke knows his stuff then it must mean something.

I go to a boatshow and come back to this.........

Gee I just thought it was me that got the hangings.....

Whoever knows Sarah from the past knows shes out spoken. We all have our own views on friends, people and racing.

If you judge the girls of today non of them get anywhere near Betty Cook for world-wide acclaim and Tracey Clarke for UK and World achievements She won a World Championship against over 28 2 lt boats in Guernsey.... didn't look for the fame or try to be tv or radio Celebrity no 1 just was dear old Tracey mad as a hatter and thrashed those men in conditions our safety fleet wouldnt even allow todays racers to go out in. on the other hand todays female racers love the attention and boys you have just done that! You should know any publicity is good publicity as their name is being mentioned.

On a positive note (as normal from me) Sarah is getting married to a wonderful man who is fantastic, they live in the 'Sausage factory' which is amazing and mark and I are really looking forward to going to Como to their wedding! Its going to be amazing!!!!!!

With respect Fiona not all is good publicity when its at the expense of, or used in connection with a team when invited to partake, and off the back of Honda for pecuniary benefit of her own agenda.
